Once every month, exactly like clockwork
I watch for your blue car to pull in the drive
Once every month, I bring out my checkbook,
and fill the amount in for ten eighty five
(Chorus:)
You write up my life,
Forever term, nothing deferred
Yes, you write up my life
You have my heart insured
Say you'll accept this marriage proposal,
My benefic'ry you then, will become
Tiny benefits may soon be arriving,
As we're endowed with love's premium.
Chorus
